This is very important for all people to know, I love you.
A less serious matter Does not observe moral law Disobeys the moral law in a grave matter Without full knowledge Without complete consent While he is in the flesh Man cannot help Have at least light sins But do not despise these sins Which is called “light” When you take them for light Weigh them Tremble when you count them What then is our hope? Above all Reconciliation Penance Confession (CCC 1863)
